Hello 
It's been a while since I was here, but it's definately more than time I cam back. My initial problem was after my son was born 7 years ago..I was 10 st 7 before I had him (i'm 5ft 9) and only abut a st more after..then it started to rocket..I'd developed an ovarian cyst n hit 19st before it was removed!mostly on my tummy..so im not even nicely proportioned 
Over the next year or so I got down to about 14 1/2 again..but towards the end of last year it started creeping back up and i'm now hovering around 18 st again 
and it does get to me..no one else says anything (bf is wonderful n couldn't give a monkeys what i look like 
) so it'd be purely for my own self esteem. Gonna join the gym up the road once i've managed to give up smoking and have the extra cash..but any diet advice in the meantime would be much appreciated!

Hi and welcome Seraphina. I didn't realise you'd gone through so much. Ever so sorry, old bean. What was the cause of the radical weight gain? Just medical, or more sort of comfort eating? I am the least successful loser myself but I'm happy to listen and hand out advice! Join the "Saturday Weight Loss here" thread - it's where it's all going on at the moment - not just a chart of weight losses and gains.

It was mostly the cyst (it was about 10lbs)!..but the pain it caused meant I wasn't walking anywhere really which doesn't help and yes I do tend to comfort eat! or at best eat comulsively! put a multipak of crisps in the cupboard n i'll just much through them without realising! thats my problem really ..i nibble, dont eat proper meals enough and have got so unfit n lazy i barely get any exercise! vicious circle really isn't it..
